The Wait Is Almost Over — ALTSEASON INCOMING ⏳

Hold tight. The altcoin cycle isn't dead, it's just loading.

Every major market shift follows the same playbook. Bitcoin leads. Then patience. Then finally, the alts break through.

If you've been watching the charts, you know where we're at. The macro setup is tightening. Volume is building quietly. And the institutions aren't done accumulating.

There's always that phase where nothing seems to happen—that's the grind. That's when most people lose conviction and exit. Don't be that trader. The ones who stay disciplined through the silence are the ones laughing when altseason actually rips.

It's not a matter of if. It's when.

Keep stacking. Keep watching. The market rewards patience.

nah the "institutions aren't done accumulating" part is where i'd actually check the on-chain data tho... capital utilization patterns don't lie but narratives do, frfr

NGL, this time it's really coming. The atmosphere feels too oppressive, and institutions have already been stockpiling secretly.

Here we go again with the "patience" story... I've already heard it about ten times.

On-chain data shows that institutions are still quietly accumulating. This rhythm is exactly the same as the quiet period before the 2020 contract deployment... Worth noting.

Every time it's the same routine, waiting and waiting... will it really come? I've been rugged so many times already haha

Those who can't stand loneliness haven't made any money. This round really depends on who can endure.

This wave of narrative is back again. I heard the same thing last year, and also the year before last... But to be honest, this setup really feels different this time. Traders who wake up to find themselves being liquidated again, remember how you all died last time during the "quiet accumulation" 😅

It's the same old story... I'm tired of hearing it, but this time I do feel that something is different? Institutions are accumulating, I believe in the silent period, but I'm just worried it might be another trick to deceive me into selling at a loss.

Talking about altseason again, I bet this wave is really coming.
